Are you doing ED and performance center delivery? I can't really answer your question but I do know that for those going to SC to pick up their BMWs that they have on order, it's usually a few weeks later than if they just picked up their car at the dealer. I think this has to do with scheduling, financing, all the other paperwork, etc. so I don't know if this applies in your case.

I did it last year and it was 8 weeks from drop off to PCD. However, at least 3 weeks of that was sitting in customs in NJ, so part of this is luck. I had a good pick up from Germany to the ship (and crossing), but got stuck in customs for what seemed like ages.

The PC will give you a date (if you have a good SA, they'll advise you of it... I had to call the PC to get mine)... The minute your auto is on the boat, call the PC and ask/demand an earlier date. I did this and got my date bumped up 10days closer. From what I have gathered, the PC/dealer really has no firm idea when your vehicle will arrive CONUS until it is actually on the ship, the PC also has a limited # of slots - so you may be delayed. Stay proactive and stay on their arse.

One thing I have learn from this whole process (other than my dealership sucks and I could have gotten a better deal/better CS elsewhere) is to stay proactive.

ETA: I'm most positive you can call them and say "I'm off xx/xx/xx- xx/xx/xx, when can I get a date?) I think I read someplace that you had 2wks to get your vehicle once delivered to the PC.
